<dt><big><b class="mainheading">What is it?</b></big>
    <dd>The AREA element was first introduced in the Client Side Image Map
        proposal (an HTML Working Draft from Spry.) It was very quickly adopted
        in browsers and then in the HTML 3.2 recommendation. It specifies
        destinations for regions of an image via an HTML encoding system
        (instead of the older, more time consuming ISMAP method which requires
        an extra HTTP request and server-side processing map file.) It has the
        ability to specify the dimensions of a geometric shape within an image
        along with a hyperlink destination to be used when the shape is
        activated by the user.
        <br><br>

        An arbitrary number of AREA elements may be specified in a MAP structure,
        and if two AREAs overlap, the one which appears first in the MAP definition
        should take precedence in the region of intersection. Multiple AREAs may
        share the same hyperlink destination to create composite shapes.

        &quot;Tabbing&quot; is a method of giving access/focus to an active HTML
        element using a standard keyboard sequence. All the active elements in a
        document can be cycled through using this sequence (ex: Windows TAB key.)
        The order of the active elements in this cycle is usually the order they
        occur in the document, but the TABINDEX attribute allows a different order
        to be established. The use of this attribute should create the following
        tabbing order cycle if the browser supports the attribute:
        <ol>
        <li>Active elements using the TABINDEX attribute with positive integers are
            navigated first. Low values are navigated first.
        <li>Active elements not specifying any TABINDEX attribute
        </ol>
        Those elements carrying a DISABLED attribute or using negative TABINDEX
        values do not participate in the tabbing cycle.

    <li>Historically, it has been a good idea to include an ISMAP as an alternative
        to Client Side Image maps, but authors sometimes may not have access
        to run binaries on their host machines and Client-side Image Maps now have
        very wide historical support.
    <li>Authors should consider creating a <em>THIRD</em> alternative to allow
        navigation via text links for users that do not have image capability.
    <li><b class="alert">DTD Note:</b> HTML 3.2 lists these values for the SHAPE
        attribute as valid: RECT, CIRCLE, POLY.
    <li><b class="alert">DTD Note:</b> HTML 4.0 lists these values for the SHAPE
        attribute as valid: RECT, CIRCLE, POLY, DEFAULT.
    <li>Text only browsers such as Lynx allow users to navigate a client-side
        image map by using the ALT attribute for the AREA element. Aside from this
        being a required attribute under the HTML 3.2 DTD, this accessibility
        feature is a <em>GREAT</em> argument in the favor of <em>ALWAYS</em>
        using this attribute.

    <li>The Internet Explorer online tag reference in the 3.0 timeframe
        listed support for TABINDEX and TITLE for several elements. IE3 never
        showed any signs that it actually supported these attributes in practice.
    <li><a href="../../../testing/html/tags/a/area-bp5.htm">[Test]</a>
        If an image is used as an image map in a document, the coordinates
        specified in the AREA elements must represent the coordinates on
        the image <em>AS IT WILL BE USED</em> in the document. Eg: if different
        HEIGHT and/or WIDTH attributes are specified in the IMG element the
        map coordinates must reflect this. Take care - if percentage heights
        and widths are specified, it will be almost <em>IMPOSSIBLE</em> to
        give accurate coordinates in the client side image map. This warning
        applies to all browsers surveyed that support client-side image maps.
    <li>Netscape does not support the RECTANGLE and CIRC values for the SHAPE attribute.
    <li>Internet Explorer does not support the DEFAULT value for the SHAPE attribute.
    <li><a href="../../../testing/html/tags/a/area-bp3.htm">[Test]</a>
        Netscape <em>DOES</em> seem to allow the DEFAULT value for the SHAPE
        attribute, but appears to require that it be placed at the <em>END</em>
        of the list of AREA elements. If it is not, the HREF for the DEFAULT
        area shape will be used for the entire image. Opera appears to allow
        DEFAULT as a SHAPE attribute value anywhere in the list of AREA elements.
    <li>The Mosaic browsers only understood the RECT, RECTANGLE and POLYGON values
        for the SHAPE attribute.
    <li><a href="../../../testing/html/tags/a/area-bp4.htm">[Test]</a>
        Creating "cut-out" shapes: If you wish to create a geometric shape,
        and then have a region inside defined within as NOHREF, the NOHREF
        region must occur <em>FIRST</em> - If it is placed after, the NOHREF
        region will still be active. This appears to hold true for the browsers
        that support CSIM. Internet Explorer 4.0, however, had a bug - "cut-out"
        shapes did not work at all, whether the NOHREF occurred before OR after
        the active region.
    <li><a href="../../../testing/html/tags/a/area-bp1.htm">[Test]</a>
        Linefeed and Carriage Return handling (&amp;#10; and &amp;#13;
        respectively) for the ALT attribute:<br>
        - <b class="alert">Internet Explorer:</b> All literal/unencoded or
        encoded CR/LFs are maintained and displayed as intended.<br>
        - <b class="alert">Netscape:</b> All unencoded or encoded CR/LFs are
        collapsed to nothing in ALT display (not the normal method for
        spacing-character collapsing - usually it would collapse to a
        single space.)<br>
    <li><a href="../../../testing/html/tags/a/area-bp2.htm">[Test]</a>
        Handling of ALT and TITLE attribute tooltip rendering for AREA element:<br>
        <b class="alert">IE 4+:</b> ALT content rendered if present. TITLE
        content rendered if present. If both present, only ALT is rendered.<br>
        <b class="alert">NS 3.x:</b> TITLE and ALT ignored.<br>
        <b class="alert">NS 4.x:</b> ALT attribute rendered, TITLE ignored.<br>
        <b class="alert">NS 6.x+:</b> TITLE rendered, ALT ignored.<br>
        <b class="alert">O -4.x:</b> TITLE and ALT ignored.<br>
        <b class="alert">O 5.x+:</b> TITLE attribute content rendered as tooltip
        and in status toolbar.
